For those interested in military don't forget about the Coast Guard. Yes we do have planes! I was originally AF and recently made the switch. I am getting about the same amount of flight time with the benifit of no doploying to the desert! Right now the CG is about 40 fixed wing pilots short and that is forcasted to go to 140 in the next 4 years. There are a number of different routes to take; check out http://www.gocoastguard.com/find-you...ities/programs
